My league totals do mirror real life. The trouble is, there are more mid-level power hitters in TWB. That steals HR's away from the top level guys. Our total HR's are very close, as are our other total offensive stats. TWB's league ERA is a tad higher than IRL and always has been, but our offensive stats are in line. The only difference as you noted is the HR leaders.
In the past I have edited down some of the mid-level guys to allow our top sluggers to reach more like RL totals, but I stay away from doing that now that their are real GM's.
If I raised the total # of league HR's, our mid-level guys would be hitting 20 instead of 15 and our weaker ones would hit 15 instead of 5-10. That's more of a concern to me.
